Soon after the House mourned the death of passengers in derailment of two trains in Madhya Pradesh, Congress members trooped into the well of the House, raising slogans against the Government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

After papers were laid, Kurien said he has received four motions from Naresh Agarwal (SP), Ram Gopal Yadav (SP), T K Rangarajan (CPI-M) and K P Ramalingam (DMK) seeking suspension of business under rule 267.

“If House is in order, I am ready to allow the motions to be moved,” Kurien said but unrelenting Congress members continued to shout slogans.

He said “by shouting slogans, you will achieve nothing” and asked Congress members to start discussion on their issue immediately.

But the Congress members were unmoved and continued to raise slogans even more vociferously, forcing Kurien to adjourn the House till 1200 hours.
